Default Expanding my repertoire

I want to try new things in order to a) increase my skill set and b) used my rapidly growing stash of fat quarters,

I have found this pattern I would quite like to try as a doorstop.

The seams in this project are 3/8 of an inch. Am I right in guessing that the seams are bigger than the traditional 1/4inch in patchwork so that it is stronger and less likely to fray?

How would you advise ensuring that I keep a consistent 3/8 seam on my Janome? I usually rely on my quarter inch foot!
